Taking a chicken to protect yourself is like that scene in Team America where the boss says: "You might have to take your life. So here, use this" and gives him a hammer.
Ha, the locals in Madagascar sweet talked them into a permit with feathers on it and he didn't mind because it came with a better backstory than the permit in the Himalayas.
The paranormal and supernatural are just things we haven't figured out yet. So maybe not paranormal, but there is definitely things going on in forests we don't know about or understand - yet.
Thank you joe for your interviews with so many different personalities. I'm a mma head but I love all the other genres of interviews you've hosted. Good shit this video is hilarious n informative
I have to say the fact that he was willing to carry around a chicken for 2 and 1/2 weeks out of respect for their culture is really impressive and extremely commendable. We could all learn something from that
Its nice to see Welsh people finally getting a mention on JRE. Ash isn't the first Welshman to appear on the show, Jon Ronson is Welsh. Eddie Izzard lived in Wales when he was a kid but I think he classes himself as English. Da Iawn Bois, Cymru Am Byth
I have actually been there and the actual idea behind the chicken is he/she will kill the spiders and bugs when you sleep so you keep the chicken safe he keep you safe and then leave the chicken
There’s a hilarious picture of him carrying Gertrude the Chicken in this article ‘have chicken - will travel’: www.shine.cn/feature/lifestyle/1807078072/
You know... professor Brian Levack of the University of Texas at Austin notes that "the original Hebrew word translated as ‘witch' in this passage meant a poisoner or ‘someone who works in darkness and mutters things' rather than a sorcerer who makes a pact with the Devil." Guy was probably poisoned by one which resulted in the seizure like movements when sleeping
In my opinion, there are 2 main issues in Africa. Corruption and superstition. It's ridiculous. Over there, you can't do anything without having to pay a Marabou to perform rituals to ask permission from whatever spirit presumably resides around there. I hate that. And they'll call a child "a witch" if he has anything out of the ordinary. If your child is labelled a witch, you guessed it, you gotta pay the marabou. The child might get abandoned, and in the worst case, killed by the local population (depending on the country, local beliefs and whatever abnormal trait the child has. You don't want to be albino in Africa for instance. Because then, your limb have magical power, and people want to kill you to get that power. GREAT!).
I've personally seen a family member being exercised. The family member was speaking in a language that he hadn hardly known (arabic)... this is family member recovered now and is mostly normal but mentally scarred and therefore on meds their whole life. Probably has some form of PTSD or something alike. I know in the west it's such a wishy washy subject but I believe supernatural entities are real - unless my eyes, as well as my families, all deceived us which would be an even bigger sorcery, lol. It's real and scary as fuck
@DjRawd0g one of my uncles who was present teaches english In an arabic country and therefore he knows arabic. He actually said it was pure/classical arabic; using vocab that most people dont even use today. Edit: the family member who needed exorcised had just come back suddenly from Saudi Arabia BTW because he had felt something happen to him. Ita a fucking longgggg story but if anyone cares to listen I wont mind essay-ing it out lol. It's honestly true though I'm not a liar. This is the internet though so ofcourse you probably wont ever believe me even if I did that lol
@DjRawd0g cool I dont have time to go over every detail but if you have questions or want me to clear stuff up just ask. My family is from Kashmir, Pakistan-occupied side and we are born muslims. That obviously comes with the belief in Jinns. My grandfather settled in Scotland but majority of the family is still in Kashmir. My grandfather had 7 boys and 1 girl; I'm the eldest son of his only daughter. So my I have 2 uncles that taught english abroad (Qatar and saudi). The one in Qatar knows the arabic language inside out as he moved to france then Egypt as a teenager with the intention to study islam and learn arabic. So his grasp on the language is better than most born-arabs (no joke). However; the other uncle, the one who was possessed had only been living in Saudi for around a year and some change at this point. His grasp on the language wasnt great by any means. After all he was an english teacher in Saudi so the majority of his day was speaking English. Anyway, this uncle lived on the outskirts of Saudi basically in quite a small town/village. The name of the town evades me but I could ask him if anyone really wants to know. So basically, my uncle describes that one day he was making his way into his apartment. He opens the door and saw a faint but clear smokey/shadow like figure hovering in the room. He said he was immediately shook to the core in a petrified way and then just remembers waking up a couple hours later. When he wake-up he still remembered what had happened a few hours prior but he seemed 'fine' in the sense that he was still himself. He says that he just had an overwhelming feeling that he should come back home and that literally became his only priority. He immediately packed, booked flights and came home the next day. He said that although initially he felt something 'off' about himself but maybe not the extent you would expect if you where possessed. Then he said over the next 12 hours or so while he was eagerly awaiting the next day so he could catch his flight slowly slowly he started having intrusive thoughts to an extreme - then it would just disappear. He basically was saying that it was a gradual thing and 'he' peaked once my uncle reached back to Scotland - infront of the full family. While I was there. This is where my perso al eye-witness happened. Just to quickly side-track. My family are Syed Bukhari's (ancestors settled in Bukhara, Russia at some point) which means we are verified descendants of the Prophet Muhammad and we have a family tree that links back to him in Kashmir. Anyway, lets just say my family, especially my grandfather, are extremely religious and knowledgeable on the religion. As we believe in Jinns; we also have prescribed methods that only experienced practitioners are allowed to do. Basically like a priest does. No layman can just attempt to do it, apparently. So My grandfather is an well respected figure in the islamic world and is well-known. He founded one of the earliest mosques in scotland and was the imam of the mosque for many years. Basically my grandfather was an experienced imam but even he would tell you he wasnt an expert by any means on exorcism. There is actually a course you can take to become an 'exorcist'. Not like a academic course but one where you have to secluded yourself from people and apparently you see some dark shit. Only the people with extremely strong faith survive (apparently). Im saying apparently because I myself am no expert and I dont want to say anything thats wrong. These however are fairly common beliefs in the muslim world. So apparently my grandfather was offered the chance to be a full-fledged exorcist. We can get more into the course if you want to know about it just lmk. Back to the story; here we are all the elders of my family (around 20 people) uncles aunties and cousins. My grandfather starts to recite passages and other things like showing my uncle a flame and I kid you not I seen this with my own eyes that my uncles eyes went SO BIG upon seeing the flame - he then jerked his head back in the most unnatural position with his Adam's apple sticking out so badly. His voice changed to such a different tone like honestly it sounded non-human when he was screaming. My 'uncle' was just flipping out for some time and then started to speak arabic which my grandad can also speak. My uncle from Qatar just happened to be there aswell as this was around the time of EID where Arab countries get a decent holidays so my uncle comes back home every year. Anyway my uncle and grandad both where conversing with what we believe to be the jinn inside my uncle in FULL ARABIC. The Jinn told us his name (Faisal) and when questioned over the course of around 2 weeks we basically had a decent idea of what happened. Also, important to note that the jinn initially lied about so many things. It was only over the course of weeks of work and constant 'torture' to the jinn by the prescribed methods I mentioned that the made the jinn start to answer truthfully (we believe). He said that a women cleaner at the school my uncle taught in had ordered that jinn to possess my uncle and that if he leaves my uncles body she would kill him. Apparently the women was a witch/sorcerer. I dont like using those terms because you automatically think of pointy hat and nose but she was just a normal looking women who had basically practiced the dark-arts. In he same way you can learn to exorcise people you can also learn how to see/speak to jinns but as muslims we believe that sort of action is an automatic sentence to hell lol. Thos is honestly such a long story with so many minor details that just add to its authenticity but I would be going on for ages. Ask me any questions and il be more than happy to answer based on what I know. To wrap up - the jinn eventually left my uncles body after weeks and for a long time my uncle wasnt the same person.i cant imagine the mental health caused by an experienc like that hes a stromg person though and has mostly recovered but is on antidepressants and anxiety medications but alhumdulilah he is working again and mostly back to himself. not completely the funny uncle he once was but you cant even expect that. I honestly had quite bad faith when I was younger but being present in that moment honestly changed my life. Its a surreal experience
Just a side story - there was 20 or so of is in the room for a few hours so it started to heat up. Someone opened the window to cool down and my uncle literally got up from the bed and went straight for the window (about 20 stories high). 4 men of family tried grabbing him but he was literally dragging 4 or 5 people with just his own body. Like honestly super-human strength lol but then another 3-4 people jumped on him and he couldn't get to the window eventually. Like I literally seen a small guy drag 5 people across a room who where all trying to hold him down. Was crazy man

Great show joe!
This was a great episode
luckily the chicken was there :)
There’s a lot of stuff out there we can’t explain and maybe they all existed in the past
Chicken keeps you from hiding lol
You know those locals were laughing at them as they walked away with a fucking chicken.
